Description

A single datum in isolation reveals relatively little about issues big and small. However, in aggregate, data can be an incredibly powerful tool of problem-solving, issue spotting, and even prediction. Data has the power to improve our classrooms, country, and world. But, with this power comes a scalable risk that the power with being misdirected or even abused. This panel will discuss the wide applications of computer-generated data, artificial intelligence, and legislative and regulatory oversight and other ethical duties to keep this power in check.
